Perry gets the flank on the Trooper to take it down:Īnd I get an intriguing notification for an Ability Point gained Moreau is once again targeted for Mind Control and once again missed. Once we blow one up and delay the countdown, Tygen comments that "our theories have proven correct" and we'll be having words about sharing theories before mission deployment next time.īut first things first, Gonzalez lands a shot to kill the injured Sectoid:Īnd we land a grenade to kill the Trooper: Lots going on here triggered the pod from the balcony, but Perry was in a perfect position to flank the Trooper (that's him at the bottom-left of the screenshot) and score the kill - I like the new notification style, BTW.Ī grenade takes off half the Sectoid's health, but we can't land the kill shot through a combination of poor planning and positioning (I /really/ miss LW2's 45degree camera movements).ĭown to 2t, but what is this little purple bubble? Yep, it's the bomb disposal mission redux. blow it up before they disconnect it from something? And we have 4 turns to do it!? Time to motor across the map (a new one BTW) - oh, a Sectoid-Trooper pod. Luke's old mission to get a Power Converter!Īctually, it's not the only thing about this mission that's poorly explained: There's a quick stop by the science department to start some research before we're off on our next whirlwind adventure: The Commander is safely extracted and Tygen rips out the chip: The Gatecrasher Tutorial is still the same railroad with two redshirts, aged sweater-guy and Kelly: Old DLC enabled, with new integration I guess we'll see what that means.Īnd so we start with a new pre-Gatecrasher intro:Ĭowled lady sneaks into the Advent medical facility to bust a few heads and scout out the Commander's presence.

Going to risk going in blind with Commander but not taking Ironman I'll keep manual Ironman as best I can, but I want to guard against potential bugs and ill-explained/unfair new mechanics. On to the setup and we've got a new starting image here with a coweled figure - ooooo: It will start out as a solo game, but if anyone else has interest in joining in then I'm open to turning it into an SG. This is a blind run-through of War of the Chosen (or WotC as people with no familiarity of what else that acronym stands for insist on calling it ).

So, as I watch the remains of 'ol Harvey move away and thank our neighbourhood's investment in drainage for keeping our home safe, it seems a perfect time to kill some Alien scum.

If you said ALIENS, you're dead right! Who else would do so much to screw up the Earth's atmosphere (bigly)? It's part of their sinister scheme I tell you! What's the leading cause of Climate Change?
